Wysox Creek is a public river in Bradford County, Pennsylvania, managed by Pennsylvania Fish & Boat Commission. You can fish it on a Pennsylvania fishing licence (plus a Trout Permit for trout, a Lake Erie Permit for Erie waters). Pennsylvania has no general right of stream access — bank and wading access is at PFBC easements, state forest, park and game-land frontage and public bridges; away from those, the streambed may be private, so check current signage or ask permission. Public access confirmed via PFBC stocked-trout water.
A PFBC-stocked trout stream — part of the ~3.2 million adult trout stocked into 690+ Pennsylvania streams each spring; rainbow, brown and brook trout, with smallmouth bass in the warmer lower reaches. Many carry Delayed Harvest, Catch-and-Release or Keystone Select special regulations.
It runs roughly 8 miles through the Northeast PA (Poconos) region. Anglers here mostly fish for rainbow trout, brown trout, brook trout, smallmouth bass. The nearest other mapped waters on PiscaMaps are Lake Wesauking and Shores Pond.

Night fishing: No statewide night-fishing closure in Pennsylvania on most waters; stocked trout waters have specific in-season closures around opening day and stocking, and some special-regulation areas post their own hours — check the current PA Fishing Summary.
Boats: Most Pennsylvania trout streams are wade or bank access; the Susquehanna, Juniata, Allegheny and Monongahela are floated by drift boat, jet boat or kayak; only the big reservoirs and Lake Erie take a trailered boat.
Bank & bivvy camping: You can fish this water on a Pennsylvania fishing licence (plus a Trout Permit for trout, a Lake Erie Permit for Erie waters). Pennsylvania has no general right of stream access — bank and wading access is at PFBC easements, state forest/park/game-land frontage and public bridges. Check current signage.
Tackle: A Pennsylvania Trout Permit is required in addition to your fishing licence to fish for or keep trout here; a large number of PA streams carry Delayed Harvest Artificial Lures Only, Catch-and-Release Fly-Fishing Only, Keystone Select Stocked Trout or Class A Wild Trout special regulations — check the current PA Fishing Summary.
Anyone 16 or older needs a Pennsylvania fishing licence — the resident annual is about $28, the non-resident annual about $61. A Trout Permit (about $15) is required in addition to fish for or keep trout, and a Lake Erie Permit (about $11) — or a combo — for Lake Erie and its tributaries. Pennsylvania residents 65 and older can buy a discounted senior lifetime licence; under-16 fish free. Buy from the PFBC at HuntFish.pa.gov. A Pennsylvania fishing licence plus a Trout Permit covers this water — it's on the PFBC stocked-trout list.
